Default Re: 35 k on stars (is this where the good player folds ak preflop)

[ QUOTE ]
I hate to post a bad beat, but for all you weak/tighties for would fold here, this is my bust out hand form tonight's $10 rebuy. See you can't assume your oppoments are playing rationally and there are a lot of loose allins.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

BB (t11360)
UTG (t11825)
UTG+1 (t15415)
Hero (t10935)
MP2 (t63449)
MP3 (t10150)
CO (t6800)
Button (t12225)
SB (t17690)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t1000</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls t800, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t10935</font>, MP2 folds, BB calls t9935.

Flop: (t22970) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t22970) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

River: (t22970) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: t22970

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
BB has Ac Jh (three of a kind, jacks).
Hero has Kh Ah (one pair, jacks).
Outcome: BB wins t22970. </font>

I'd argue our edge is much bigger in this hand than in the other one (especially given that we are pushing and not calling).
